There are some days in the off-season where crazy shit happens and DeSean Jackson gets abruptly released. And then there are many others where it’s just the Seahawks signing a Canadian long snapper. Today so far is the latter.

— Deion Sanders said in an interview that he thinks that Johnny Football has “ghetto tendencies”. That sounds like a set-up for a Katt Williams stand-up routine, but instead it’s become a dumb controversy because Deion denies saying it even though it’s in an interview transcript.

— This article from the Wall Street Journal reveals that Jim Harbaugh uses an intense game of catch to evaluate players, followed by the test of the firmness of their handshake and how quickly they’re willing to draw blood from the opposition.

— Patrick Chung returned to the Patriots after a year of playing for the Eagles. So far, his career highlight to me remains the time he got Mike Tirico to yell A SPECIAL TEAMS FIESTA in a win over the Dolphins.

Perhaps Deion just meant that Manziel wants to keep all the city’s Jews in a specific area as a prelude to systematically cleansing the populace of their presence. In that light, I think Deion may have a point.

Something tells me those Packers fans wouldn’t be yelling “Kuuuuuuuuuhn” if he were for a below-average black running back. Of course, that’s probably for the best. Don’t need #PurgePackers on top of #CancelColbert

Back in 2009, Al Davis overdrafted Heyward-Bey in the first round because he was fast. Vroom! Then he continued to add to his legacy by drafting Mike Mitchell in the second. Mike Mitchell was not even on many people’s draft boards, but he was also super fast. Double vroom! Both players were acquired by the Pittsburgh Steelers this off-season, but THEIR entire 2009 draft class is now gone. This has to be a good omen of the highest order for the upcoming season, right?
